UP THE WAHS.

With standout prop Addin Fonua-Blake set to join the Cronulla Sutherland Sharks next season, the Warriors have announced the man to step into his boots. And boy is it a good fit.

Announced today, Penrith Panthers and New Zealand Kiwis captain James Fisher-Harris will join the Warriors on a four-year deal from 2025.

The 28-year-old originally from Northland has been released from the last two seasons of his contract with Penrith on compassionate grounds so he can move back to New Zealand to be closer to his family.

“It’s a huge signing for us, undoubtedly one of the biggest in our club’s history," Warriors CEO Cameron George said in an official release.

“To be able to add a player of his calibre and standing to our squad is a tremendous boost for 2025 and beyond. He’s such a highly-respected player and leader.”

The three-time Premiership winner brings a wealth of experience to the Warriors and will be welcomed home with open arms by a passionate fan base. How bloody good, UP THE WAHS!
